ABSTRACT OF ORAL PRESENTATION Extraordinary conditions are often encountered when designing large blasts for in situ mining methods and spatial or innovation techniques are sometimes required. Some of the considerations in designing these large blasts will be discussed with emphasis on those factors that concern powder factor, rock movement and fragmentation. Sources of basic data will be described, along with some of the methods for obtaining these data.

This paper examines the comparative economics of cast blasting to alternative stripping techniques. There are several scenarios where a mine may consider introducing cast blasting. However, there are other alternatives such as adding dragline capacity or introducing a prestripping operation. The question becomes which alternative will be more economical.

The effect of varying aliphatic, olefinic, and aromatic groups in the N- and S-positions of dithiocarbamates was investigated in the selective and bulk flotation of a mixed copper-lead-zinc-iron ore. Selective and bulk flotation were found to be dependent on the type of functional group, as well as on the position of substitution.
